For our Google Lit Trip project we will be using the book The Hunger Games and build the world of Panem. We will track Katniss' journey throughout the book from her home to the arena.
This will make for an interesting Lit Trip! Consider who will fulfill what roles and responsibilities for this project. Also, consider time lines for completing this project. I look forward to seeing your final product!

I think we need to go ahead and establish where the districts are located. Then Take a closer look at District 12 and track Katniss through her district and then to Capitol. How does that sound?
I think we should probably all go ahead and make a time line with detailed notes tracking Katniss' journey. Then we can come together and compare and contrast them. We can come up with a formal outline and then begin the real work on the GoogleLitTrip.
I think this basic information here will be very helpful with getting started on the Google Lit Trip Project:
a. Literary Concepts: plot, character development, point of view, structure, figurative speech, conflict and of course the big question – “why are we reading this?”
b. Geographic Concepts: spatial relationship between people, places, and events; geographical origins of the character and how their upbringing affects their actions; or how the character feels about being in a particular place
c. Social Studies Concepts: historical events that affected the characters decisions; current events that affected influenced the author
the Capitol was constructed in a place once known as the Rockies. District 12 was a region formerly called Appalachia, a coal-mining region. Originally, there were 13 Districts, but the Capitol destroyed District 13 before the 1st Annual Hunger Games. This also means that The Hunger Games are also a reminder of what happened to District 13. The first 12 Districts, however, each have different resources, and still exist.
District 1: Luxury Goods for the Capitol District 2: Mining elements and making weapons (also unofficially provided Peacekeepers) District 3: Electronics/Technology District 4: Fishing District 5: DNA Splicing/breeding District 6: Medicine and other scientific research (aka morphlings) District 7: Lumber and paper products District 8: Textiles District 9:FoodProcessing District 10: Livestock District 11: Agriculture District 12: Coal mining District 13: (now terminated) Graphite Mining (unofficially they manufactured nuclear weapons and among that housed and produced other weaponry)
